The operation principle of the present invention is: its operation principle is similar to Schottky diode, by-pass switch as photovoltaic cell cellular, when there is focus in photovoltaic cell cellular, electric current will flow through without blocking through by-pass switch, and when Everything is fine for photovoltaic cell, by-pass switch will not work, and is off state。When electric current flows through by-pass switch, first NEXFET is off state, electric current flows through the diode of parasitism, agitator is started working, electric charge pump is coordinated parasitic diode pressure boosting to be charged to electric capacity, be charged to comparator preset high value time complete charging, the pressure drop of this stage by-pass switch is about the pressure drop of a general-purpose diode。After the electric capacity charging stage completes, driving module is started working, the enable signal of comparator output turns off electric charge pump, electric charge on electric capacity reaches, until voltage on electric capacity C1, the low level value that comparator is preset for driving NEXFET, NEXFET conducting forms low impedance path, and the electric current overwhelming majority flows through NEXFET。The pressure drop of this stage by-pass switch is about the conduction voltage drop of NEXFET, and owing to the dutycycle of charging stage is little, average conduction voltage drop is very low。
Described drive control module includes single-chip processor CMP, driver, electric charge pump and agitator OSC;Described agitator OSC is constituted current reference to described electric capacity C1 charging by two PMOS, two NMOS and a resistance, can work at lower voltages;Described electric charge pump is made up of several charge of the electron series connections of pumps, charge of the electron pump circuit inside configuration contains two electric capacity C2 and C3, the negative terminal of two electric capacity C2 and C3 connects two anti-phase oscillator signals respectively, two electric capacity of height according to LO signal level are alternately accomplished two work process respectively: 1, electric capacity C2 and C3 negativing ending grounding, electric capacity C2 and C3 anode charge to input voltage vin;2, electric capacity C2 and C3 negative terminal connect high level, and owing to electric capacity C2 and C3 two ends pressure reduction are constant, electric capacity C2 and C3 anode voltage pump rise export, and are risen by relatively low body diode input voltage pump and charge to external capacitor C1。
Oscillator circuit structure in described driving module makes under the low input that this agitator can be operated in 0.6V, and frequency of oscillation is affected less by supply voltage。Agitator is by being constituted current reference charged to electric capacity by 2 PMOS and 2 NMOS and 1 resistance, when electric capacity charges to certain potentials, sluggishness phase inverter starts output low level, charging current is reduced and discharge tube starts electric discharge, voltage on electric capacity starts to reduce, process is started to charge up, it is achieved vibration after being discharged to electronegative potential。
The manufacture method of further NEXFET by-pass switch: mainly include silicon chip and prepare-P type outer layer growth active area photoetching n+ and deeply tie diffusion n-district injection grid oxide layer growth polycrystal etching p-type and inject p+ type and inject that n+ type injects contact hole etching Metal deposition, prepared by etching alloy passivation anneal processing steps。The gate medium of described NEXFET is selected from SiO2、Si3N4、Al2O3、La2O3、HfO2Or ZrO2One of which medium in high K medium。Described NEXFET by-pass switch can adopt the semi-conducting materials such as body silicon, carborundum, GaAs, indium phosphide and germanium silicon, and one of them makes。
Advantages of the present invention: NEXFET is possible not only to quality factor (Qg*Ron) improve more than twice compared with trench-MOS, the diode of its parasitism can also by the breakdown voltage of the drain-source pressure drop clamper of LDMOS to diode, would not there is avalanche breakdown event in such LDMOS, make it have extremely low conduction voltage drop, less reverse leakage current, less power consumption, better temperature characterisitic, longer life-span and more stable characteristic。Its performance is far superior to the by-pass switch of the now schottky diode array of current domestic use。
